Filming

We only have two more scenes to film and we can begin to edit! It has been really fun filming my script however we have had trouble with one actor as he has not been showing up and has blocked contact with us. This has lead to us to create another Mandy post to find a quick replacement actor as we are desperate. We have acted fast and profeshional.

production

We have filmed two of my scenes! It went really well and i enjoyed shooting it. We filmed the two scenes which had the most actors in so that we could get the busy scenes out the way and focus more on the emotional and lonely scenes.
I was the director and also helped out with the camera. I enjoyed being hands on with the camera and also telling Katy and Kat which shot i wanted and how i wanted it. Katy was the main camera operator and did a great job with her own input. Kat did well with the sound too especially as we were all worried the zoom was not going to work. She had a lot to hold and managed to get great quality sound. Brett sat with the actors who were not in the scene being filmed and i suppose, kept them company whilst me, Kat and Katy filmed.
The actors were very friendly. Scott Ball who was the solicitor in my script was excellent with his lines and put in a great preformance. Also the poilceman, Emmanuel was a great person to shoot! He put in his own input and made the best of his character. The two main females, Amy and Emily were very bubbly and happy when we were filming and both put in an wonderful preformance. They both adapted and created my character to life and made them seem real.
I am happy with how the film is coming along and cannot wait to film it all and edit it!

lets start filming!

I have been completing my story board and also writing some extra last minute notes on my script so i am fully prepared for filming on monday. All of our actors have confirmed that we can film on that day and we have discussed times.

We are sorting out all our paperwork to email to the actors and hopefully give it to them over the weekend!
